Bob Marley
Robert Nesta "Bob" Marley (Nine Mile, February 6, 1945 - Miami, May 11, 1981) was a Jamaican singer-songwriter, guitarist and activist.
He helped develop and spread around the world a lifestyle generally identified with reggae music, which also made him popular outside Jamaica. In recognition of his merits, a month after his death he was awarded the prestigious Jamaica Order of Merit.
In 2008 he was ranked 19th in Rolling Stone's list of 100 best singers and 11th in Rolling Stone's list of 100 best singers; among his best "vocal tracks" are I Shot the Sheriff, No Woman, No Cry, Is This Love, Natural Mystic, One Love, Exodus, Africa Unite, Catch a Fire, Could You Be Loved, Get Up, Stand Up , Three Little Birds, Jammin ', No More Trouble, Waiting in Vain and Redemption Song.
His music is strongly dedicated to the theme of the fight against political and racial oppression and the call for the unification of peoples of color as the only way to achieve freedom and equality. The political aspect of his life was more important than the artistic one. Marley became a political, spiritual and religious leader. In 1978 he was awarded the United Nations Peace Medal on behalf of 500 million Africans. He died in 1981 of melanoma in his right foot.
